MSM talking head: “inane” to suggest armed citizen saved lives

Scenario: Nutbar walks into church and starts shooting people. Armed citizen shoots said nutbar, wounding him to the point where can no longer inflict carnage on the innocent who are present. Realizing this, and fearing incarceration for the remainder of his days, the nutjob kills himself. Inescapable conclusion: the armed citizen prevented the murder of scores of innocent people by incapacitating the psychopath.

But as Newsbusters reports, this MSM meat stick has her anti-gun views and is fully prepared to ignore reality in order to keep her mental apple cart upright:

Don’t confuse Mika Brzezinski with the facts. She’s anti-gun and is not about to let some stunning counter-evidence change her mind.

If ever there was an illustration of how an armed citizen can make a difference, it is the case of Jeanne Assam, the brave woman who took out the killer at the New Life Church in Colorado Springs. And yet . . .

On today’s Morning Joe, Mika — in newsreader mode — dutifully reported the incident. But when Joe Scarborough sought to draw the logical inference, Mika put her anti-gun foot down.

Let’s see: the people who were actually there during the church shooting say that Jeanne Assam saved 50 – 100 lives by shooting the killer; but what do they know?  It’s not like they were actually present during the shooting, right?

What?  Oh, yeah…they were there, and Mika was not!  Hmmm…I think I’ll take the word of the survivors over some reflexive anti-gun emotional wench who is impervious to glaringly obvious facts, if it’s all the same to you guys.
